According to the scotsman website, Craig McEwan is being lined up to fight Pirog next year. http://sport.scotsman.com/sport/Boxing-McEwan-has-offer-from.6655150.jp I dont know how reliable this is but surely McEwan will jump at this chance. He has been crying out for a meaningful fight and here it is.
Pirog must love Goldenboy! Hope this happens for him. I think he'd be out of his depth against Pirog but he should take his chance if it comes.
If Ricky burns can do it so can Craig! Good luck Mcewan, gotta respect a guy who takes such a risk. He will last much longer than Jacobs i reckon.
If only Macklin would go to germany and take the much easier mission than Pirog ie Sturm than things could get real interesting next year......
Hopefully McEwan will pull a Burns and upset the odds. This is the kind of fight hes been dreaming of his whole life, so he wont be short of motivation. I think people under rate him based on his last couple of fights which he has admited himself he wasnt up for them due to the opponents. If this comes off will be great for scottish boxing. War McEwan!!!
I think with the right preperation and gameplan, craig can go on and win this. Mcewan might shock a few people and take a decision. I heard about this fight before reading that article so im pretty sure it's happening. Go on Craig :bbb
ive know this has been on the card for awhile,they are just trying to finalise the date for it ...might be a undercard fight by the sounds of it .Mcewan is up for it
